Couverture du William Horton: e-Learning by Design (PDF)
From William Horton — a world renowned expert with more than
thirty-five years of hands-on experience creating networked-based
educational systems — comes the next-step resource for e-learning
training professionals. Like his best-selling book Designing
Web-Based Training, this book is a comprehensive resource that
provides practical guidance for making the thousand and one
decisions needed to design effective e-learning.

e-Learning by Design includes a systematic, flexible, and rapid
design process covering every phase of designing e-learning. Free
of academic jargon and confusing theory, this down-to-earth,
hands-on book is filled with hundreds of real-world examples and
case studies from dozens of fields.

‘Like the book’s predecessor (Designing Web-based
Training), it deserves four stars and is a must read for anyone
not selling an expensive solution. — From Training Media Review,
by Jon Aleckson, www.tmreview.com, 2007
